For the record, there was 1 tie between M.K.C88-90 and schiballs. I created a game to break the tie, per the original rules, and M.K.C88-90 missed 2 invites. Since a customary 48 hours was given, schiballs has advanced to Round 2. M.K.C also stated he would not have premium for another week, and since 8 game slots are needed it is impossible to hold the tournament up for such a duration.

Good luck to everyone in Round 2. I have moved the Round 2 spreadsheet to be the first page viewed when clicking on the link...

Round 2 should be finishing up in the next 3-4 days...Round 3 will begin immediately following when the final game finishes (There is one set of current run-off games in Haiti/Japan for final slot)...If more run-off games are need in other groups, then it may delay the start of round 3 by a few days (week at most).
